Poor Mac
Got posted before he was done and then is working with old tape to mp3 as source..




Actually it was from cassette tracks that had been "bounced" back and forth several times, then to VHS tape, then to CD, then to wma, then to mp3 on Switch converter, which is obviously not a good one. ( Mac has since advised me about Audacity and it's converter.)

I didn't give Mac a very good canvas to paint on, but I'm very pleased with what he did.

If I ever start playing again and recording, this one will be in the first 5 or 10 I record. I've written about 40 or 50 songs. Some are pretty good, some are ok, others just mainly have sentimental value to me. Oh yea,..........some are bad. LOL.

Funny thing is, one of my best friends who was playing with me on the radio program I posted a few weeks ago told me he was just listening to some of these old songs of mine and his favorite was one that I think of as bad! LOL.

I plan on trying find the VHS tape, (I mastered from the cassette to a VHS since I had a high quality 6 head machine), then borrow a VHS player and convert to a stereo wave file on Sonar or RB.

Hi Bob,Mac has improved it but you really should get it on BIAB the song deserves another chance.Dont knock your voice I love it.. as a Brit try as we might we just cant get that authentic American vowel sound which comes through in your song naturally. Cheers Frankie PS you sound about late 20s how old were you when you did this?

Bob. Either way it sounded good. I listened to both versions. Mac is spot on when he says it is what it is. Without being able to get to the original tracks there's not a whole lot you can do with this .. other than wreck it. Mac did a great job on it. If I were you I'd let people know on your site that Mac did the remastering. I doubt I would have tried this one. Now if I had Melodyne ... maybe.

Frankie,

Thanks again Frankie. If I ever record it again, all I’ll probably use from BIAB is drums. I’ll play the rest myself. And you’re right, I was in my late twenties. Oh, to be young again.

Russell,

I agree on giving Mac credit on the site. If Mac or someone else will tell me his last name, I’ll gladly give credit where credit is due. I’m very pleased with what he did.
